UO 1997 to 2000 was the best game ever made, you were only safe in town. You step outside town and its anything goes. Instead of some dumb ass NPC fights, other players were the end game content, fighting over the best loot spawns. At its height, the, PVP and combat mechanics in this era was insanely good, but you had to know what you were doing. The banks were like EQ but they could only hold so much stuff, so you had to buy a house if your loot out grew your bank space. Which meant all of your loot in your house was potentially vulnerable. Nothing was safe, so it was very intense. These safe BS games today, no one has any idea the real interactive game like UO and how good it was. When you died you were a ghost that could not interact with anything until you got rezzed. I miss that intensity, the game play mechanics from that era were also very unique, with many, many creative ways to kill people. Excellent PVP, unique skill and spells mechanics, real player crafting of useful items you bought constantly. Of course they patched out the awesome combat and made a safe 2D Everquest. That the only reason I quit UO and started Everquest. Unlike everquest there were no classes, so balance was not an issue with PVP, if you were missing something, you just went and trained up the skill you needed.

NPC you should try Outlands (P99 type free server). Its classic UO that they have made way more grindy (not in skills up points, but in leveling the custom stuff). 7X GM doesnt mean shit, its all about your other levels. its a great blend of skill based and level based systems working together. Its same T2A UO on a custom map with a bunch of cool added shit. Like you can get weapon codexs that require XP to level up from killing monsters that give you added bonuses, Aspects to level up that do the same, and they have the same systems in place for Summoners Tombs and Taming. Its great that you can play whatever you want and be pretty good.
They have balanced the game very well so that if you have all the Aspects and Codexs and Mastery Chains and Tombs and shit leveled up whatever build you choose is competitive. Its not just an army of tamers and halberd mages (those are still there, but they are not so much better than everything else that that's ALL there is). They have slowed down mount speed and you can not be mounted at all in dungeons so the game is a little slower and it makes it much much much more enjoyable. Its pretty easy to get away from PKers but you will still run into them very often and other players are the biggest danger in the game by far (and there are plenty of griefers but not to the point where you cant do stuff) This is the best UO server i have ever played on and ive played several - has a 2000+ pop

I've been on Outlands for about a week now. It's been a great game to learn, if you enjoy p99 I think you can learn to love UO. It's from the same era but the mechanics and gameplay are different. It has aspects of EQ that we love, slower methodical gameplay. Enjoy!

Cant speak highly enough about how bad ass this server is. Fairly large learning curve but once you start to get it you realize how much they have improved on the game and made this thing into its own monster. So much character progression is available aside from leveling a skill to 100.
Haven't logged into P99 since discovering this gem of a server, no regerts. Classic UO spirit turned into a more modern MMORPG, its fucking beautiful

Still playing Outlands, its still awesome. New content and rebalancing come in about once a month, its delicious.
Great PVM content will PVP being the ultimate dispute solver, 10/10 would play again
